What this operation supports in Salesforce
Creates a new record on a specified Salesforce object with the given field values.
Implementation details
Required fields and validation rules configured on the object must be satisfied, or the create request fails rather than saving a partial record.
Operational considerations
Checking the object's required fields and any active validation rules before creating avoids a failed request from a missing or invalid value that wasn't obvious from the object's layout alone.
Use cases
Create a lead from a marketing form, add a contact from an import, or generate a case from a support channel.
